📘 What is a Regulatory Dossier?

A regulatory dossier is a comprehensive set of documents required to support the approval of a pharmaceutical product.

It includes everything from drug composition and clinical trial data to manufacturing details and labeling information.

The most widely accepted formats are:

  • CTD (Common Technical Document) – Used by USFDA, EMA, Japan, WHO, etc.
  • ACTD (ASEAN CTD) – Required for submissions to ASEAN countries like Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, etc.
